Atom: select all occurrences at once

Pressing Ctrl+D will select one occurrence. Pressing it again will select another occurrence. We need to press it over and over until confident has select all occurrence.

Is there any way to select all occurrence at once?

(In VS Code, the shortkey is Ctrl+F2)

Below is my software version:

  • Atom version: 1.13.0
  • Ubuntu release: 16.04 x64

Even David answer is correct I found useful having all related shortcuts together:

  • ctrl - d to select one at a time.
  • alt - F3 to select all at once
  • ctrl - u doesn't work even Settings > Keybindings say it should, but:
  • ctrl - kctrl - d skip select (very useful).
  • esc to undo all.

More info in/with python -m json.tool /usr/share/atom/resources/app/node_modules/find-and-replace/keymaps/find-and-replace.json | less. Said here.
